(6) Printing.
In Fortran 77, and also for consistency in Fortran 90, formatted
output to certain units resulted in the first character of each
record being interpreted as controlling vertical spacing. There
was no standard way to detect whether output to a unit resulted in
this vertical format control, and no way to specify that it should
be applied; this has been deleted. The effect can be achieved by
post-processing a formatted file.
